IDE-7498

Multi-byte chars should be denied as Build-Debug configuration name

Application

Multi-byte characters can cause a compilation failure when used as a build configuration name in e2 studio.
Therefore, multi-byte characters should NOT be applied to debug/build configuration names.

Note: This issue affect both for configuration management dialog and the configuration creation dialog of Optimization Assistant.

IDE-7419

RL78 on-chip debugging and reserved areas problem

Application

In older versions of e2 studio the RL78 debugger would protect OCD memory areas for the E1 emulator.

However, in some cases this would cause issues. This is no longer done and GCC projects will work well. If you are using IAR projects this may cause some problems for your debugging.


A new GDB monitor command has been added to protect/overwrite memory. This will allow the same behavior as e2 studio 3.x.

e.g.
monitor protect_memory, fef00, 100, ff
Any attempt to write to address 0xfef00 to 0xfefff will cause 0xff to be written instead.
A warning message will be shown in the GDB server console window.

This can be added to the initialization commands within the debug configuration for the RL78 E1 emulator.

IDE-7298

Dialog should be re-sizable when comparing to font size

Application

When font size is changed as magnified, some user interface controls are hidden.
The only workaround for this issue is to apply smaller system font size.

IDE-4492

breakpoints cannot be unset within the editor when code is #ifdef out

Application

Breakpoints cannot be unset on editor if the codes are out of #ifdef close.
Those breakpoints can be removed in Breakpoints View.

IDE-3389

Source Addresses: multiple debug contexts with same-named source file

Application

When debugging files with the same name show source addresses even though it may not be correct for the file in question. The full file path is not considered just the filename and current debug context. This can lead to e2 studio showing addresses unnecessarily.

IDE-18242

'Launch in debug mode' button on the top left of the window will kill the current process forcedly.

Application, CDT, Debug Launch

When pressing the launch button on the launch bar when a debugger session is already in operation there is no warning message displayed. The current debugger session is terminated.
If you wish to have more than one debugger session, please use the Debug menu rather than the launch bar.

IDE-8711

2. Delete the old name of project folder, then add the new project name.

IDE-7423

Disassembly view does not always update on initial opening

CDT

In some cases, the disassembly view does not refresh correctly on suspend. When this problem happens refreshing the disassembly view does not fix the problem. To restore the functionality close and re-open the view.

IDE-7403

Indexer setting not saved.

CDT

The setting 'Use a fixed build configuration' in the dialog, Properties->C/C++ General->Indexer is not saved when the user checks it.

This can be caused by visiting the properties, modifying the indexer setting and then visiting settings. If you do not visit settings the option is stored correctly.

IDE-6529

IDE-22266

Cannot start e2studio image due to Code Generator .Net Framework Exception

Code Generator plugin

This issue can occur when using multiple versions of e2 studio of the same version. If e2 studio is installed in one location and then another installation of the same version is installed on the same machine, then the older installation is deleted or moved.

The code generator component which is registered in the registry no longer exists. This will cause problems with the other e2 studio installation as it will try and use the code generator component as defined in the registry. To avoid this run the tools within the Code Generator plugin directory of the e2 studio you are trying to launch.

e.g.
C:\Renesas\e2_studio\eclipse\plugins\com.renesas.cg_2.11.0.v20180601-1047\CodeGenerator\Tools\

First run "Unregister COM.bat" and then run "register COM.bat".
This should solve the problem and allow e2 studio to work correctly.

IDE-21699

When setting this option ensure the limit (16 for RX devices) is not exceeded.

IDE-16874

Cannot connect to RZ if "Image Only" is selected as Load Image

Debug Configuration ADAS, Debug Configuration RZ

When writing the PC register, GDB needs to know in what mode it is ARM or Thumb.

Usually this is obtained from the symbol information but since the symbols are not loaded ("image only") GDB tries to obtain this from the cpsr value from current frame. However, in this case there is no frame information which causes an error.

There is a workaround, we can tell GDB what mode we are running so it doesn't try to read the cpsr register:

set arm fallback-mode (arm|thumb|auto)

GDB uses the symbol table, when available, to determine whether instructions are ARM or Thumb. This command controls GDB’s default behavior when the symbol table is not available. The default is ‘auto’, which causes GDB to use the current execution mode (from the T bit in the CPSR register).

This can be added to the GDB start up commands in the debug configuration.

IDE-18623

[RL78 G10] Strange behavior with Breakpoint at top main on G10 hardware debug

Debug Configuration RL78, Project Generation Core

In case of using RL78, hardware breakpoint is realized by execution address after PC. This will cause several issues:
 - Temporary hardware breakpoint will not be removed after the breakpoint is hit. Therefore, the breakpoint will always hit. Please remove the temporary breakpoint manually after the breakpoint hits.
 - If "Set breakpoint at" is specified in the debug configuration for RL78/G10, program will always break at the specified address. Please do not specify the "Set breakpoint at" in this case.

IDE-23669

IDE-21616

Connection will fail if max+1 breakpoints are set.

Debugger

If setting breakpoint is failed, the breakpoint is marked as exclamation in the editor view (or marked as un-checked in breakpoint view). In this case, if debugger is disconnected and re-connected, connection will fail. To avoid this, please remove the failed breakpoints before connection.
And also, this will happen if "Set breakpoint at" is checked in the debug configuration, when the flash programming is disabled. In this case, please set the check OFF before connection.

IDE-9101

Cannot launch debug session when breakpoint cannot be set

Debugger

If GDB is unable to set a breakpoint during the launch, then the whole launch will be aborted. Removing the breakpoint(s) will allow the launch to complete successfully.

IDE-16048

The behavior of step-return (with breakpoint) is strange on RL78/G10

Debugging RL

IDE-19310

[Profile] Displayed data is not reliable If Trace view is OFF

GDB Server RH850, GDB server RL78, GDB server RX

If the Trace view is off, the Trace capacity (will be also used for Profile) is set to default (usually, this is the minimum capacity). This then means that the Profile data is not reliable.

To work around this issue you can set the Trace capacity to maximum even if Trace view is off. When turning on the Trace view again it will use the previous setting rather than the default.

IDE-18598

The value on the memory view is not updated with RL78/G11

GDB server RL78

In the memory view, when displaying the IO area and the memory area near the address adjacent to the IO area, FF data may be displayed depending on the display area.
